After getting a couple a wins in the UFC, Greg Hardy feels that it's the perfect time to start making moves up the heavyweight ladder.
This Friday in Boston, Greg Hardy looks to put the finishing touches on his first year on the UFC roster when he steps into the cage against Australian Ben Sosoli.
The former NFL star has garnered more attention, more criticism and greater opportunities than most rookies are afforded and, thus far, the 31-year-old has acquitted himself well, despite the increased scrutiny and elevated expectations.
“I think a lot of people do lose sight of the fact that I’m still a baby in this sport,” said Hardy, who made his professional debut with a 57-second knockout win over fellow former NFL defensive end Austen Lane on the first episode of Season 2 of Dana White’s Contender Series after registering three wins in as many months as an amateur.
